O Brother, Where Art Thou? Photos in Sterling Colorado

My good friends Scott & Alyssa invited me to Sterling, Colorado to shoot a one-year anniversary 1930s stylized shoot inspired by the movie “O Brother, Where Art Thou?.” You might remember them from their engagement session and awesome wedding. And if you like homemade pie, old books, country living, watermelon, fedora, trains, moonshine, old books, 1930s living, frogs, and floating money, you might like this:wpid-scott_alyssa_photos_in_sterling_01-2011-08-14-01-352.jpgwpid-scott_alyssa_photos_in_sterling_02-2011-08-14-01-352.jpgwpid-scott_alyssa_photos_in_sterling_03-2011-08-14-01-352.jpgwpid-scott_alyssa_photos_in_sterling_04-2011-08-14-01-352.jpgwpid-scott_alyssa_photos_in_sterling_05-2011-08-14-01-352.jpgwpid-trash_the_dress_sterling_colorado-2011-08-14-01-351.jpgwpid-scott_alyssa_photos_in_sterling_06-2011-08-14-01-352.jpgwpid-scott_alyssa_photos_in_sterling_07-2011-08-14-01-352.jpgwpid-scott_alyssa_photos_in_sterling_08-2011-08-14-01-352.jpgwpid-scott_alyssa_photos_in_sterling_09-2011-08-14-01-352.jpg The money shot… and my favorite from the entire session:wpid-scott_alyssa_photos_in_sterling_10-2011-08-14-01-352.jpgwpid-scott_alyssa_photos_in_sterling_11-2011-08-14-01-352.jpgwpid-scott_alyssa_photos_in_sterling_12-2011-08-14-01-352.jpgwpid-scott_alyssa_photos_in_sterling_13-2011-08-14-01-352.jpg Shot with available light inside a railroad car near an old beet factory in Sterling, Colorado:
